Being a foreman at Johnson Controls was an incredibly engaging and rewarding experience. On any given day I would estimating, selling, supervising, scheduling, innovating and implementing a vast array of projects, solutions, and company missions. One day I might be at the negotiating table for a major project or contract, the next day I might be exploring expansion opportunities for our existing mechanical force or product lines. When all else failed, I was still the guy who would go out and solve complex problems with constantly evolving machines; and I found it all incredibly and deeply gratifying.
